A review by jaclynday
The Gates of Evangeline by Hester Young

3.0

A spooky first half and the Southern Gothic setting really got me into the story. Unfortunately, a predictable ending and a wishy-washy commitment to the supernatural, “I see things in my dreams” storyline left me feeling meh on the whole thing. It had a ton of promise. The premise was original and creepy. The whodunit mystery/suspense was really well-maintained before Young inadvertently gave too much away all at once. It’s too bad. With an unpredictable ending, this book could have really stood out among the suspense novels I’ve read this year.
